NJ Transit & Metro-North HD 60fps: Evening Rush Hour Diesel Railfanning Action @ Ho-Ho-Kus (8/8/16)

[@JhonnGuinansaca]

I never seemed a train station like this

[@johnallen8368]

Only just caught up with this. The question as a UK based railfan is what works now and what locos are on the line

[@johnnysantoro965]

They all work fine from what I've seen. The locomotives used on this line are ALP-45DPs, PL42ACs, GP40PH-2 (and 2Bs), GP40FH-2s, and F40PH (2CATs and 3Cs).

[@mainlineproductions513]

Awesome video. I sure need to come here again sometime...

[@StandardGaugeRailroader]

NICE ONE MAN!! I was just in Hammonton yesterday catching NJ Transit also!!

[@JJE144]

I like that horn 4912 metro north

[@SDRP_4406]

So this is where all the PL42ACs are! I always love to see them down between Bay Head and Long Branch! NJT always uses ALP-45DPs for the shuttles which I see there to be no need for!

[@JJE144]

The ni 4011 horn looks like 4003

[@stampycatfan01lol]

3:10 There are some Gamewell Diaphone horns in the background on a tower

[@american_77w34]

Thanks

[@LongIslandCityLayout]

Really nice video, i enjoyed watching it, gotta love those Metro North F40s...

[@Chqnces]

Awesome, Also, what camera do you use?

[@FanRailer]

lol iPhone 6

[@Chqnces]

Fan Railer Really!? Wow, that camera is amazing then!

[@turbochargedtransit7241]

Hey I do too!

[@turbochargedtransit7241]

Very effective

[@Chqnces]

TheRaisinMiester Awesomd, I don't have one though :P

[@TheRailShooter]

Nice to see the Port Jervis line still uses PL42AC's. I live near the Port Jervis line (Harriman station). Have you seen a Port Jervis line use ALP-45DP's?

[@calvinh2196]

the Port Jervis line (up north of Suffern): the locomotives used are only GP/F40s

[@TheRailShooter]

Calvin H I just saw an ALP-45 yesterday and it's was Train #59.

[@johnnyponce5671]

It varies, but it’s usually PL42ACs with a mix of Geeps and F40s

[@rebooted.jupiter_]

Trains 59 and 68 have not so good locomotives so they either have PL42s or ALP-45DPs. Rarely theyll have GP40s/F40s :/

[@american_77w34]

It's been a while since I've played it.

[@jonathanmoor7035]

want to hangout soon at Ho HO kus soon

[@american_77w34]

I need your help on how to toggle the atc and acses in the ALP45DP.

[@nerailvideos]

CTRL D and CTRL F

[@R3VStudios]

Is 6074 a semi-restricted? And 7030 sounds weird

[@anthonymaimone7830]

Great video. What kind of camera do you use?

[@FanRailer]

iPhone 6

[@Chqnces]

Lol, you caught GP40PH-2B 4211 at video time 42:11

[@FanRailer]

Would have been better if I had positioned myself at the crossing... always with my shitty luck lol.

[@Chqnces]

Fan Railer lol

[@theyloveme5232]

+Fan Railer too bad theres only 2 PH-2 remaining

[@AaronJrBrundidge]

I wish Dovetail Games make the PL42ACs

[@AaronJrBrundidge]

especially that one, all lines if they must

[@resyncs6357]

i would absolutley love an lirr line, i live on LI

[@trainmancorey]

Is it me or does it seem like NJT does not give a damn when it comes to horn and bell usage procedures.

[@trainmancorey]

It just feel dangerous that most drivers dont start blowing until a couple of feet away from the crossing.

[@Chqnces]

You know the procedure for American trains, right?

[@Chqnces]

And what you said is true

[@FanRailer]

The higher the line speed, the earlier you start blowing for crossings. There's nothing wrong with the horn/bell usage here.

[@Chqnces]

Fan Railer oh, thanks for the tip, never knew

[@VinceHere98]

I live near that station. There's a possible chance we may bump into each other sometime....

[@davidcolantuono3622]

I've noticed that, with a few exceptions, most trains in this video seem to only have either Comet V cars or Multi-Level cars. Are they taking over the other Comet cars? I like these train videos, but I'm not too fond of all Comet V or Multi-Level cars with trains.

[@Maunico0809]

Other comet cars are used on eltrcfied lines and shuttles

[@gc4060]

Why are MTA trains paired with some njt trains?

[@stephenterrell6470]

They probably borrow them

[@AndreiTupolev]

Another nice little rural station. :-/ horn at 20:45. Nicely timed 31:43!

[@turbochargedtransit7241]

What's your favorite type of horn?

[@theyloveme5232]

K5LA

[@railfanben5935]

43:52 Bell Fail xD
